The Future - ALMS / Grand-Am Buyout
Discussion
Two sides of the same story:

http://www.grand-am.com/News/GA_News/tabid/141/Art...
Basically NASCAR are buying ALMS they already run the Grand-Am series.
2014 new series will start at Daytona, then include Sebring, I guess Road America, Petit Le Mans at Road Atlanta.
The big question has to be Le Mans, i.e. eligability of the cars to run at / qualify for Le Mans.
For example at the moment ALMS class winners automatically qualify for Le Mans and as the sanctioning body for both is the ACO the cars are the same.
My big concern is the ACO/FIA and NASCAR rules drifting apart so no Corvette Racing at Le Mans!
